Why are you no longer offering the F-Series Platemeters?

GPS-it brought the business off Ballance in 2017 under the purchase agreement we were required to discontinue the AgHub brand in 2018.

We conducted a thorough review of the business and engaged with farmers to understand what they wanted out of a Platemeter.

The key findings were…

it’s frustrating and time-consuming to record the measurements in the field

users don’t want to go back to the shed and put information into software – they want immediate access in the paddock

farmers want the product to be as cost effective as possible and still maintain the reliability they are used to

The cost of the Platemeters has stayed the same for a number of years despite supplier increases, by consolidating the range into one unit meant that we could lower the cost of production while providing the requested functionalityupgrades.
